Nice model HastyP, I like the your "non excessive" weathering and the kit looks well built. From the pics its seems to me that the decal with the number on the turret are a bit silvered and the paint is in my view a bit too glossy...
Ciao

Nice work, it may be the photo but your model looks a little shiney, have you layered it with a flat coat yet?

I have not added a dullcoat yet and Airwarrior, all I did was wash with some dark brown and then drybrush on some mississipi mud light brown. Thanks for the comments boys!

A technique that I use with my airbrush is to use a "dust" color thinned,sprayed from a foot away to lightly deposit a dusty coat on the upper - less -than - muddy areas. (++) (++) (++) (++) (++)
